Spent the last 5 days in BA force feeding myself on steaks and tango. From my last blog, we took a long long extraordinary long drive from Usuaia along some of argentinas most boredom inducing roads. It was long, flat and lifeless but the 3 day break in the beachside resort of Puerto Madryn medically helped. So its the last day in BA (Buenos Aires if you havent cottoned on yet), and its fantastico. Well maybe not the first day considering I woke up at 4am in the...

It´s taken us almost 15,000km to reach Ushuaia, Argentina. Commonly known as ´The End of the World´, it´s cold, quiet yet still virtually sunny at midnight. We´re only an armslength to Antarctica (well just 1,000kms away), though judging from the cost, we just opted to sail the Beagle Channel instead and admire some stinky seals mating in a fat tangled hump of seal love. From Santiago´s blog, we travelled south to Pucon to climb V...

It´s been a while to say the least. Pressing on from my last bloggy, we pushed through Lake Titicaca in to the slums of Bolivia. Well not that bad, we actually stayed in some 80´s fabricated looking apartments in the centre of the witch market district in La Paz. A strange area of town that stocks a surplus of alpacca and llama fetuses. Apart from the usual drunken behaviour we visted a club that has the worlds highest oxygen bar. A room filled wit...

Just finally washed out the sand from every bodily orifice. We´ve spent the last 2 weeks driving endlessly along the Peruvian coast, breaking 10 hour drives with random beach camps and some incan cultural injections. After leaving Ecuador, we traveled to a deserted beach resort in Punta Sal for a 3 night beach camp. Kidneys were flooded with a tremedous amount (esky full)of dirty vodka and mango nectar in a cloudy (but tasty) punch. All of us did take a ...

Quito is a slimey place and stinks of dirty mustard. Back in Quito last Thursday and an attempt was made to rob us of our cash and passports in an unorthadox kinda way. We left the hotel in dodgy central (marsical sucre) to grab a quick bite to eat. Slimey thief #1, walked beside us on his mobile phone, probably talking tactics to greasy thief #2. Next minute, slimey thief #1, grabbed our attention by pointing to our backs. We stopped and both backs were cov...
